  2. How is it apparent? Until an official announcement comes down the pike, nothing has changed.

  3. Friesen was inducted into the media section of the Canadian Football Hall of Fame. He apparently asked no other than Mike (handled internally) Kelly to induct him. There is a video of Mike Kelly's induction speech. Probably not worth the minutes of commercials The Sun will make you watch to see it, but it is the off season. https://winnipegsun.com/sports/video-mike-kelly-introduces-paul-friesen-into-hall-of-fame-2025 In one of Kelly's job interviews after the Bombers, they looked him up online and apparently asked him who Friesen was, as a bunch of his articles came up. Kelly said his response was "someone who did their job better than I did."

  4. Oh, damn- one less mediocre restauant to not patronize. My absolute favourite breakfast place is The Original Pancake House. The giant apple pancake is a good excuse to sleep the rest of the morning, but my 16 year old son ate TWO of them in a single sitting on a dare. We didn't see him again until well after lunch.

    The Airline Thread

    I don't understand the "hate" for people going South for winter and how it is related to domestic flights being expensive. I don't believe airlines are subsidizing flights to Mexico by charging more to folks wanting to travel back and forth from Calgary? The only hate should be Air Canada taking billions from our Gov't and yet still outsourcing most of the jobs and charging customers top dollar for mediocre services. Me thinks you are in a time warp and think that it is the 80's where a family could travel via car for an affordable rate while only the rich and upper class can fly to Mexico. These days it's the opposite, our family road trips that we take are extremely expensive in comparison for the value that we have when we fly to Mexico. I've encountered several people in my life who didn't understand going South for winter.... until they went one time and then realized how great it is and after going once couldn't wait until they could go back again. Many of them regretted waiting so many years until going. Leaving Winnipeg in -30 weather and arriving somewhere tropical and getting that blast of hot +25 humid air as you leave the plane is sublime.

  6. I'm sure a bantam or pee wee team could use him. There's a lot of Dad coaches he can learn from.

  7. He's always been like that. Stories of him being a shithead in Calgary over a decade. Hufnagel finally got rid of him.

    I think if anyone can afford to go on a holiday to a sunny resort anywhere then they should pay for the privelidge. We, the poor Canadians who stay home in the winter, if we want to fly in order to see family in Canada, we pay for it big time. I've never travelled anywhere in the winter. We travel in the summer. Prefer to drive over flying. In 2 years when my wife retires, we're planning a road trip to Halifax. We have family & friends in New Brunswick & Ontario. I've never beem east of Toronto. You're late!! It's mine.

    Inflation has hit the States big time over the last few years. It was really expensive for us travelling in Spring where food and lodging was pricier then in Canada.

  10. Not silly at all, I would think it will certainly make the transition easier for imp rookies. They aren’t the biggest differences, but they are odd for americans. I wonder how big the transition will be for established guys though. No joke. Ufl Ds really struggle not having the cohesion of units that have been together for a time. A lot of the good D in the spring leagues looks like that. Tbh it starts out like that here, but our season is long and we have enough hold overs to get past it. The spring leagues never reach that point imo. Farhan now reporting he’d be shocked if hogan was back as oc for us next year. Day keeps getting better.

  12. In this video for the last TD.... can the Blue sign the receiver Malik Turner? That juke and speed was real nice! Perkins in that TD run it was hilarious on how bad those defenders froze and watched him... if that is a representation of the talent in the UFL then yikes.

  16. I think the backup QB issue usage has been beaten to death in other threads, and us flapping our gums will have zero effect on O'Shea.
